"...Political poetry does not exist. Poetry comes from the soul, and politics can never reach there. Poetry cannot be used as propaganda. Even when it comes from a profound place, like in(Pablo) Neruda, it is always a sort of hypocrisy, a variety of selfishness that tries to impose a determined rule on others."

At eighty four years of age, Jodorowsky recalled, ‘once he asked me to have a child with him.’ At the beginning she thought he was joking with her, but the beatnik proposed the idea again as they crossed through the San Martín Plaza. ‘Seriously, I want to have a child with you,’ he insisted as he took her by the arm.‘I was so surprised that I didn’t respond,’ the elderly poet recounted. In the ode she dedicated to Ginsberg, published in the collectionCaramelo de sal, Jodorowsky reproaches him, ‘You put yourself in my life for days that stood still / stirring the brains of my worms,’ but later affirms that a son of theirs ‘would have been born with a soul.’An interesting, well-researched document.
